Though “The Secret Circle” was, sadly, canceled by The CW, it’s safe to say that star Chris Zylka is still having a pretty fantastic summer. He and “Pretty Little Liars” girlfriend Lucy Hale are so adorable we could just die, and he’s got a prime role in this summer’s upcoming blockbuster “The Amazing Spider-Man.”

No confirmation yet on his role, but we do know that producers have been looking for an “brilliant, inventive” actor to play an 18-year-old who has an “offbeat, could-be scary” side to him. After seeing his work on “The Secret Circle,” Zylka seems to be a natural fit.UPDATE: Zylka will be playing the deaf-mute “most beautiful boy in the world,” named Daniel, per EW.

This season, “American Horror Story” will be set in the 1960s, in a New England asylum for the criminally insane. Jessica Lange returns, this time leaving Constance behind to play a devout “Bride of Christ” nun who is the administrator of the institution.
